Today’s Final 48 schedule features title games in Classes 1A, 2A and 6A, and there are a number of compelling storylines. Check our three of the top ones on championship Friday at the BJCC.

CAN ANYONE STOP THE LEAH STRAIN TRAIN?: Woodland’s Leah Strain is usually worth 30 points when she steps off the bus, but can title-game opponent Red Bay contain her? Strain, a 5-foot-2 Jacksonville State signee, contributed 35 points and 15 rebounds in the semifinal victory over Montgomery Academy, moving her into the No. 2 spot on the AHSAA all-time scoring list for girls basketball. Now, she’ll try to capture a second straight state title. And how many can she score today?

HISTORY WILL BE MADE: Neither Elba or Luverne has ever won an AHSAA boys basketball title, and the schools – separated by less 30 miles of blacktop – meet in today’s Class 2A title game. Luverne has already beaten Elba twice this season, and a third game was cancelled because of winter weather. Has Elba figured out how to deal with 6-foot-8 Luverne junior Donta’ Hall, who had 11 blocked shots in the semifinal victory over Lanett?

GOTTA WEAR SHADES: It’s not hard to spot a Mountain Brook fan, thanks to the neon “Spartan Swag” shirts that have become synonymous with the program’s rise to elite status. Thousands of Mountain Brook fans packed the arena for Wednesday’s semifinal victory over Caver-Montgomery, and expect another sea of neon in today’s final. Mountain Brook is chasing a second straight 6A title. The Spartans knocked Blount knocked out Blount in last year’s state semfinals. Can the Leopards get revenge tonight?
